[Poll] What's your next phone? - Nexus S General

And when?
I apologize if I missed any.
For me, probably the S4..maybe by the end of the year.
EDIT: Probably will get the N4 soon.

My contract ends next year in march so the next nexus phone probably or the galaxy note 3

I will dismiss my Nexus S with broken screen on Christmas.. probably Galaxy S4 with Snapdragon 600 (for a good price) but I have to look at Nexus 5 before I decide (LG?? Motorola?? specs??)

So... I can't buy a new phone like s4, butterfly or one... I need to buy in second hand from Android forums (Android PT).
BTW. I need something bigger and with a better resolution (540x960 min.).
So I looking for a galaxy nexus or something with a bigger camera... but galaxy nexus still my favorite.
PS: we don't have the nexus4 here in Portugal! So.... galaxy nexus ; )

...mmmh... will be traumatic move from an Nexus (specifically) to an iPhone... how do you do a full-wipe?? I can't live without CWM hahahahaha
Sorry about that post just for laugh..

Probably Sony Xperia Z, the IP57 certification is a plus for me.

Got myself a Galaxy S3. Got a decent price for a decent phone. Sorry Nexus S, but you were just too slow for me.

I'm looking at the S4, possibly the S4 Mini (if it's announced). My contract is up in July so I have a bit of time. I would like to stay with a Nexus, so maybe I'll wait for the Nexus 5 announcement and hope that it's not boring.

Nexus 4 probably, as I'm only 16 years old and don't have a huge budget. Maybe a Nexus 5 if it will be as money-saving as the Nexus 4!
Me Gusta!

N4 is on the way

I have a iPod, too and I bought it before my Nexus S. So I know the advantages and disadvantages. Full-Wipe? iTunes can do that. It takes more time but it work
But I won't sell my Nexus S so I will stay in the Nexus S Section

Don't think you can go wrong with the N4: A competitor phone with great specs and even a greater price of $300. The demand for it speaks for itself.

I think I'm going to leave NS and buy smaller tablet like Galaxy Tab 2 7 or Nexus 7. I realised I read a lot of material on my phone but bigger phone is just out of the question.

Similar Phone?

I've had a Nexus S for about a year now and it's the perfect phone for me aside from one little detail: expandable memory.
I'll probably be upgrading soon but I want something that:
-has a Removable Battery like the Nexus S
-at least 1Ghz processor
-between 4 and 5 inches large in screen size
- Expandable Memory (Or at least 32GB, but only if it's the only choices)
- Customizable (not too complicated to root and some good choices for Stock Roms)
Any recommendations?
Galaxy s3 meets all the categories
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
Galaxy S3 is a little too expensive and new for me lol. I was thinking something in the same price range or less as say a Galaxy Nexus (which I would get if it had expandable memory). Plus, it's a little on the big side for me tbh.

The Nexus S is similar to the Galaxy S, and the Galaxy Nexus is similar to the GS2. I like the GS2, personally, though it seems that it's still more expensive than you might like.

Oh, I just realized the Galaxy Nexus does have a removable battery AND a 32GB version. I found my target guys, thanks for the help

I bought a Huawei Ascend G300 for my daughter for $134 AUD (about $140USD). Checks all your list. Rooting was easy. Stock roms are only up to ICS, Custom CM roms up to JB 4.1.2. Phone seemed quite zippy and has a fast reboot which is way quicker than rebooting a Nexus S, Doesn't have its own forum on XDA but MoDaCo has a G300 forum with everything you need. Battery life is amazing,
If you want to stray outside of the Nexus family, the HTC Raider is an underrated phone. Some development still going on, and it is LTE ready.
GS3 Mini is slightly similar but more powerful to NS.

Would you trade the nexus 4 straight up for a note 2

My friend offered me her note 2 for my nexus...should I stick with my nexus?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I wouldn't trade the phone period. First and foremost you could probably sell your phone on ebay depending on condition for 400-500 BC the demand is still so crazy, upgrade for 300 and still have some dough left over. Second when both phone get old which they will you have a Nexus your always going to have the latest software. Even though Samsung has gotten better with updates and the development community is great it's nice to have a stable vanilla build right from Google.

I would do it.
I would sell the Note 2, and then get myself another Nexus 4 and buy ice cream from the spare change.
I was on the other side of this a week ago. I traded my Note 2 straight across for a Nexus 4 and I couldn't be happier. The Note is fun for like a week...then you will miss the Nexus (I came from a Gnex and still missed it). I have ZERO regrets about the trade.

You couldn't pay me to trade my Nexus 4 for a Note 2, sorry. If I want to carry around a huge tablet, I'll take my Nexus 7 with me. I can't see putting that huge monstrosity (Note 2) up to my head to talk a call. No thanks. I'd look cooler holding a shoe up to my ear and I'd get major geek points.
Sent from my Nexus 4 or Nexus 7
the note 2 screen is worse than the first, lower res to make it narrow and dpi, it should of been better since they made the screen bigger. the nexus 4 is a good hand held size and aosp will provide more support than exynos chip
I would think about it as if you play your moves right, $200+ profit is too hard to pass up unless you do well (I dont).
In the end I probably wouldn't do it though. I really don't like the Note phones much personally and am crazy about my N4. I would be really upset if I couldn't get another N4 due to extreme lack of availability.

If the play store was chock full of n4's I'd do it for the profit but since that isn't the case the answer is no.
noteII is a closed plattform. hardware button crippled. runs fricking touchwizz. developers fighting a tough fight against samsung trying to make 4.2 stable. heck no.
Yes and then sell it and buy nexus 4 again and keep the extra $200 profit

I have both the nexus 4 and note 2.... you guys have never used a note 2.. so you are saying this stuff... I gave the nexus to my brother. ..note 2 is way better. ...
But each to his own. ..
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)
I would do it. These guys telling you no are crazy. Who wouldn't want to profit $100-150? You can find the nexus 4 16gb from craigslist for 400-450. Where I live there are about 5 people trying to sell it for 450 but no one is buying it. Idk why all these people are talking down on Samsung. I love my nexus but some of these people need to stop praising the nexus like it's a perfect device. They remind me of those annoying Apple fanboys. There are some minor issues with the nexus... like sometime Bluetooth doesn't want to toggle so you have to reboot to get it to work and the touch responsiveness on the web(tapping next to see next image) is not as responsive as Samsung. I wish Google would implement some of the features off tw.

To me its a no brainer. The Nexus 4 is not only the best Android phone out, it will sell 2 years from now for more that what you paid for it.

I know, it looks really cool. I was thinking about something like this but built into a low profile case. I would also buy it if it works as advertised.
It works, but only for media and probably backups, not apps. Don't get the 16gb if you already have a big sd

It's not just a flash drive, a big chunk of that cost is coming from the fact that it's also a wireless access point. It can wirelessly share it's data through network connected machines. Pretty cool idea if that's something you need.
I like the idea above about putting storage capability into a phone case. Very cool idea. Kickstarter would eat that up.

Don't think so because not a single android device is equally shaped in comparison to another one so there is not "the" case so there wouldn't be that much money invested on kickstarter because you can't build one case but need to build several cases for every single android phone so the time and work and money that would be needed to publish such a case would be enormous... And everyone would just donate for a case for their device so the money would be to fragmented...

I agree about the Android phones. If it were me, I'd make them for the iPhone 5 and 4s. Once I made a butt-ton of money from that, I'd start making them for selected high end Android and WP8 phones that don't offer expandable memory (I'm lookin at you, HTC).

Is the Nexus 5 an upgrade? Yes it has a better camera, better processor, etc. However, the Nexus 4 isn't a bad phone and is running the latest version of Android.
